Hearthstone Patch Notes: The Approach to Blackrock Mountain

The new Hearthstone adventure Blackrock Mountain makes its debut this Thursday, and a new set of patch notes for the game have just been released. In addition to details on the new adventure, the patch also addresses a handful of bug fixes, including friends that are away on the Battle.net app no longer being displayed in your online friend count, and some important adjustments to cards.

The Queue: Falling under Hearthstone’s spell

Hearthstone isn’t always (at least not for me) good fun… I’m not particularly good at it and never make it very far if I try to play competitively. Still, I enjoy tuning in to watch Matticus talk about it and, oddly, I had a lot of trouble turning away from this week’s not-quite-endless Hearthstone turn. There was just something about the soothing rhythm of the ongoing barrage of Arcane Missiles that was hard to look away from.

But now that that’s come to an end, we can get back to the business of answering Queue questions.


The world’s longest Hearthstone turn

Normally, a player has about 90 seconds to take actions on their turn before it automatically ends. Spell animations and other effects will have to resolve first before a turn officially passes to the other person. But two ambitious individuals have taken it upon themselves to try and set a record for the world's longest turn in Hearthstone. If successful, it will take literally hours. Over 40 hours.
